Why do we like this?

The Arcade Fire have released a third single from their upcoming album, and for the first time, it actually sounds promising.

While the only version available was cut from a radio broadcast by BBC's Zane Lowe, it doesn't detract from the fact that this is an awesome sneak peak, and a confidence booster at that. I found myself to be anything but enamored by their first releases, but with this UK single, they've boosted my faith in the band.

Even though I didn't much enjoy their last release Neon Bible (see Five Amazing Bands that Disappointed), I'd be lying if I said I didn't have high hopes for this album. What's your take? Do you think Arcade Fire's latest album will live up to the hype?

By Jason Grishkoff on Apr 19, 2011 | Funeral was undoubtedly one of the best full-length album debuts to ever grace the indie rock world. Many might even argue that it was one of the best debuts across any genre. For my generation, it certainly holds a pretty solid place.As many of you ... read more →

By Jason Grishkoff on Jul 28, 2017 | The day has finally arrived! Arcade Fire's new album is here, alongside another freely available single called "Peter Pan."
